> While the comma placement may seem weird
It's not completely unconventional. Haskell is typically styled with that kind of comma usage, too. For example,
[ 1
, 2
]
{ foo = 1
, bar = 2
}
Coincidentally, SQL and Haskell are the only languages I know that use `--` for comments.
- mulmen 6y agoWith the curly braces this makes a lot more sense. In SQL it offends my eyes (personal preference) but here it seems more clear.
- Wevah 6y agoFWIW, Lua and AppleScript (and HyperTalk!) use(d) `--` as well. (Edit: I think I misread “know” as “know of”; whoops.)
